If at any time your dog should runaway or go missing, you need to immediately begin searching for him using this checklist as your guide.

Search your neighborhood first. Walk slowly and meticulously and observe your surroundings, this includes under houses, backyards, any open garages, bushes, etc. Call your dog by name. Do this search at different points throughout the day, especially the early morning, early afternoon or late evening when it is quiet and your dog has a better chance of hearing you.
